If the system catches it then criminal charges can be filed against you. I have had a few clients charged in this scenario but they were given the ARD program for first time offenders because they had no prior criminal history. If you are found guilty of this offense and you have a prior record, it is a minor offense and the chances of jail are slim but you would have a record.
